“I felt like, being in conservative politics, there would be more, like, masculine men in the conservative movement,” Housley says, “and I find that a lot of them aren’t as masculine as I would have hoped.”

    When Morgan Housley, 29, moved to Washington for her job in April, she had some non-negotiables for the conservative man she was looking to date: He had to “love the Lord,” genuinely enjoy going to church, and be able to “provide and protect, emotionally, physically, spiritually, all of those things.” A fit, athletic man she could go on runs with.

    So far, Mr. Right has not materialized. Instead, many of the single MAGA men she’s seen are … “Not fit, workaholics and not taking finding a wife seriously,” Housley says.

    LOL so the only one who responded was Stephen Miller.

    Also, wonder if she meant alcoholics.

        She wants a fit dude who goes to church on Sundays and who isn’t a huge fucking baby. That’s not too ridiculous, it’s just that she’s looking for that guy in conservative circles so that just ain’t gunna happen.

      provide and protect, emotionally, physically, spiritually, all of those things.

      1. Okay, what does she bring to the table?
      2. She’s not looking for a mate, she’s looking to be pampered princess-child.

    Maybe if you weren’t selecting for people that are basically childish assholes, you might be able to find a suitable mate. Just sayin’.

        Assholes don’t really enjoy the company of other assholes once they’re done complaining about minorities and/or women. They get on for a little bit and then it starts to go downhill while run some mental gymnastics to pretend like everything is normal.

      The “masculinity” she’s looking for is actually just confidence. Confidence to be yourself in a world that can accept or reject you, and the balls not to give a shit what it decides.

      Confident men don’t need a blowhard sycophant to be confident for them. Scared little boys do though.

        Confidence to do what is right and stand up to bullies is not something they’re gonna find in conservative circles. Also, compassion and empathy are much more attractive than bigotry and anger, but these alpha male types think it shows weakness.

        “Woman who filters search by red flags only is unhappy with search results.” Shocking

    “There’s a lot of talk around the word ‘fascism’ and people on the left calling people on the right ‘fascists’ and ‘Nazis,’” said a 27-year-old Republican staffer, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because her employer did not allow her to speak to the press. “I think if somebody genuinely thought that, they probably wouldn’t want to date me anyways, but like, that’s a red flag, because then you think that I’m that, which I’m not, whatsoever, and never will be. But I mean, my partner can’t think I’m a fascist. That’s crazy.”

      Time is a wheel. We’ve seen this movie before, and although we believe we know how it ends, we gotta keep looking out for the M. Night Shamalan twists.
